To allow the management of suspended printed jobs while being distinguished based on reasons for suspension and removing the reasons to execute the print jobs, for a plurality of print jobs suspended in the printing apparatus, the print jobs are distinguished based on reasons for suspension to specify the print jobs; information making the specified plurality of print jobs and reasons for suspension recognizable is displayed on a display apparatus; and the printing apparatus is made to execute the specified plurality of print jobs according to a print instruction from a user.

Apparatus and method to execute print jobs

An image forming apparatus includes a first sheet discharge unit, a second sheet discharge unit, a switching unit configured to cause a sheet discharge destination to switch between the first sheet discharge unit and the second sheet discharge unit, a memory unit configured to store information about drying time of a print medium, a timer unit configured to determine elapse of the drying time of the printed print medium based on the information stored in the memory unit, and a control unit configured to control the switching unit to set the first sheet discharge unit to be the sheet discharge destination based on a determination of the timer unit that a drying time of a print medium discharged to the first sheet discharge unit has elapsed.
